front end clunk at slow speeds.cant diagnose.

Hi

I have a 2013 335i xdrive. Ever since I hit a pothole on i94, I have this clunking sound coming from the front passenger side at low speeds around 30km/hr going over rough surface,bumps etc.

there is no noise in the steering or while turning, only happens over bumps.

Took it to BMW, they drove it and apparently didnt hear any noise, they checked the suspension and told me everything is nice and tight.

I read up online and the symptoms point to either the strut or sway bar end link, which bmw said are fine..

dont know what to do.

Sounds like your strut bearing needs to be replaced.
